A new report breaks down the split in ownership of the three new investment companies.

A new report about the EA buyout has surfaced this week from Wall Street Journal. Elaborating on the ownership percentages from the three new investment companies that announced their purchase in late September 2025.

Even though the Press Release stated that three companies including Jared Kushner’s Affinity Group, Saudi Arabia’s Private Investment Fund and Silver Lake are buying the company together for $55 billion dollars, the stakes of ownership are dramatically different when laid down in percentages.

WSJ reports that the biggest share of Electronic Arts will be in ownership of Saudi Arabia’s PIF at a staggering 93.4%. Silver Lake will own 5.5% while Jared Kushner’s Affinity Group will only have 1.1% of the company. Making it just enough for him to be used as a pawn in ensuring the deal goes through within government officials.

The consortium didn’t disclose the planned ownership breakdown. But a November filing with Brazil’s antitrust regulator shows PIF would own 93.4% of EA, while Silver Lake and Affinity would own 5.5% and 1.1% respectively. That puts the onus on PIF to fund almost all of the deal.

It’s been reported that an official EA shareholders vote will take place at the end of December 2025 to conclude if the buyout can be given a green light or not.

Meanwhile, a new investigation from Kaskela Law LLC law firm has been announced on December 1st about a new investigation being done to determine whether the buyout will be done in fair interest to its shareholders. Here’s the full press release:

Kaskela Law LLC is investigating the recently announced proposed buyout of Electronic Arts Inc. (NASDAQ: EA) (“EA” or the “Company”) shareholders to determine whether the buyout agreement is fair to the Company’s investors.

On September 29, 2025, EA announced that it had agreed to be acquired by an investor consortium comprised of the Public Investment Fund of Saudi Arabia and other private equity firms at a price of $210.00 per share in cash. Following the closing of the proposed transaction, EA shareholders will be cashed out of their investment position and the Company’s shares will no longer be publicly traded.

The investigation seeks to determine (i) whether $210.00 per share is sufficient monetary consideration for EA shares, and (ii) whether the Company’s officers and/or directors breached their fiduciary duties or violated the securities laws in agreeing to sell the Company at $210.00 per share.

The company is also facing pushback from its own EA employees and even creators within the EA Creator Network. With some big names already deciding to leave the network before the deal potentially goes through.

Even if Saudi Arabia’s Private Investment Fund will own almost the entirety of Electronic Arts and its video game titles, franchises like The Sims assure players that nothing will change for future plans.

Our mission, values, and commitment remain the same. The Sims will always be a space where you can express your authentic self.
